I travelled here with a pilgrimage of religious sites in Portugal and Spain. I had never even heard of Covadonga before the trip. What a BEAUTIFUL place it is, and the Hotel Gran Pelayo made the visit even nicer. The hotel was recently remodeled and the rooms bordered on luxurious. This was the nicest hotel we stayed in during the... More

The hotel is beautifully located in the pictorial town of Covadonga and close to the heart of Picos de Europa (national park in Asturias). View to the cathedral and cave. Our experience was horrible. We paid 100 Euro excluding breakfast for a room in the addict with only roof windows. The temperature outside was mild (mid twenties). The room was... More

We stayed in Arcea Gran Hotel Pelayo in May 2010 and enjoyed it`s atmosphere, tasteful decoration of rooms and the hotel in general and of course it’s great location in the heat of Picos de Europa (national park in Asturias). The view from our room window to the cathedral and cave was wonderful and each morning slightly different due to... More

We enjoyed excellent service and very reasonable rates during a quiet time, the only way to appreciate this faboulous location. It reminded me of a film I once seen..

I should have known better. Staying in a hotel that is closed except for weekends out of season is a bad idea. Turning up on Friday evening to find the receptionist is also the bar tender, concierge etc....etc.... Not her fault. Dinner was a disaster. My starter was cold. Their microwave cured that BIG TIME. Now, having served a cold... More

I think I bagged a bargain on Lastminute for £48 per night. Great location (once the tourist hordes go) and rather a grand hotel, but not stuffy. I was given a large room with a very spacious bathroom and cannot fault the hotel in any way. In the morning I walked around the deserted cathedral precinct........deserted that is until 09:30...

Service, rooms, food and location were excellent. This is an ideal location for hill walking, sight seeing and the sea is nearby. The staff in this Hotel were the most helpful and the friendliest we have ever encountered. I couldn't find one fault with the whole experience.

For once I disagree with other reviewers. The room we had was very very small. Same size as the bathroom in fact. In daytime the place is very busy with Spanish retiree busses. Deserted after 5PM. There are 3 restaurants and that's it. Breakfast was O.K. but we had a cold coffee thermos and an invisible waiter. I think there... More

Just like the other review - amaizng hotel in a magnificent location. We only spent one night at the hotel as we continued our journey up north. The hotel, room and breakfast were all fantastic. We were given a room that seemed like it was part of an optional larger suite and the room was huge! We opened the window... More
